Additional Info

Dr. Garland contacted Canadian Blood services - 250mL of FFP is counted as 1 unit and has 1 sticker. Therefore, count stickers if available, otherwise use the volume of FFP if that is all that is charted.

How would one derive a "count units" from the volume on the chart? e.g. if a pt got 25ml would you count that as a 0.1?

You asked me to put how to count this on your list at Task 2019-02-06

Transfusion Guidelines

Use transfusion codes once for each separate day that a transfusion happens.

For each such day, also code the number of units transfused as the Px Count

Definition of a single unit:

A single unit is what the blood bank (Canadian Blood Services) says it is. A single unit is accompanied by a single, unique sticker that is put by nursing on the Blood Products Administration Record in hospital charts.

So, the number of units you record should equal the number of stickers on the record.
